I stay inside cause it's safer there
I hate people that take ideas
Then try to make it theirs
But we all do it to make it fair
We all influence the talk we share
Lately watching YouTube vids to braid my daughters hair
With tears in my eyes
Cause her mama hate me so she ain't here
Shit ain't fair
But I lost my temper almost hit her
I thank god I didn't take it there
Still bloody knuckles
And my mouth landed me in other legal trouble
I mean it's petty shit
But who knew being a good dad could turn to hectic shit
Why the women got all the leverage
Truth be told I wish that things were better and
I wanna leave the city I think I'm getting too cool
But I settle cause I can't miss my baby's first day of school
I feel bad for chasing a dream
And I can't pay my bills off these streams
I'm still trying
My main goal to stay protected I ain't lying
Losing sleep and I barely eat
I need to take better care of me
You say the right things to level me
Make me into a better me
Never questioned your energy
You stayed around in my toughest moments
I never asked you to hold me up
At first, I thought this shit would slow me up
But you honestly keep me focused love
This my moment of clarity
I know this what I asked for but this scaring me
Found faith in you so I took a leap
Last person, I wanna see before I go to sleep
Run ya bath water and rub yo feet
You deserve everything
